CRIES FROM THE W A T E R

T he d r owning of seven passengers and eleven

inquiry into the loss of the P. and O. l i ner Oceana ,

Sunk off E eachy Head af t e r a: collision on M a r c h 16.

M ajor T hur low, a passenger , said that af ter hewas awakened by the crash of the collision he wenton deck, looked over the s ide and saw t ha t boa tN o. 1 was s wamped .

Miss anii i e Gert r Kle Elin, anoth er pass enger ,s tated that while a s t ewar d was ass is t ing her to puton a l ifebelt he had to drive away a n u m b e r oflascars who came down look ing for bel t s . Shehear d s omeone s hou t : " Don ' t l ower any mor e

T her e wer e n ine t een in the boat she en ter ed .Almos t immedia t e ly she en ter ed the boat shenot i ced tha t it was leaking s lowly. It was baledwith boots and caps .

R ep ly ing to Captain B.i t t , one of the assessors ,witness said she hear d no one conn ter mand theor der t ha t the boat s mus t not be lowered,

Miss Florence Thurlow, another passenger , /s tated

tha t she hear d no order given af ter she heard the

~ or der t ha t no more boats must be lowered. Afterthe o r der WLIS given they wai t ed a few moment s j

. and then the boat was lowered,• She heard faint cr ies for help when the boat was

• on the water , a.nd Miss Macfar iane was hauleiiaboar d a lmos t immedia t e ly . As far as she k n e w ,no search wiis made for others in the water .

BALED CUT WITH HIS SHOESMr. .John Cook, another passenger , said l l ia fwhen , he en ter ed the boat—the s ame as the onewhich carr ied the las t two witnesses—he heard theorder given iTom the deck , " I-owcr aw.ay and s t a m i .b y . "

Before that o rder was carr ied outj someoneshouted : " For God's .sake, keep that boat whereit is ! " For f ive minutes af ter that (he b o a t rem a i n e d on the davits , and then it was l ower ed .

T hey r emained near the ship for four or fiveminu tes , and (hen pulled towards the l ifeboat. Heass is ted to bale the boat with his shoes , becausethe baler could not be found at first. He t hough t .the arrangenienls for ;mannin{; the boat were quiteadequate.-• C ap ta in J ohn L i t t l e , an Ar my s ur geon , who was

also a pas s enger , s a id t ha t when he c a m e on deckhe heard screams from the water . He looked over ,but could see nothing—not even a luminous l ifeb u o y . The cries died away as tern,

M r . C or e l ! B ar nes (for the B oar d of T r ade) : Didthe crew go to the boat s t a t i ons ?—No.

W er e the meas ur es t aken by (hose in char ge oft he Oceana s a t i s f ac to r y?—I n my opinion, unsatis factory.

M r . B ar nes ; W h a t do you think of the ar r angement s for m a n n i n g and g e t t m g out the boats?—I .should say t hey wer e i nadequate .

Will you specify in what r es pec t s ?™ L ack of control of the pas s enger s a l t e r the coll is ion, lack ofinspection of e m b a r k i n g the boats , lack of anycrew of any sort during a very cr i t ical per iod of tlieOperations , and, even af ter that , lack of sufficientskil led help in r owing .

Seldom has there been a br igh t er or happ ierMa y Day in E ngianr l , As in ohlen days , whenfiower-bcdeckcd lads anil lasses tr i i ipcd upon thegr een , so men and women wore f lowers in theivcoats and frocks and the l ightes t and br igh t e i ta t t i r e .

J jondon's parks were crowded with May Dayrevellers rowing on the lakes ami plavii ig cr icketand t enn i s .

A m o n g men seen in Bond-s treet , The DailyMirror noticed that ten out of the hrs l twelve worebu t tonho les ,

'Âny kind of flower is now worn for a but tonhole," .said a Bond-street florist, '' One can seemen s por t i ng t u l i ps , bu t t e r cups , or r os es . "

Dear Sirs,-"Some, tirne since I became a victim of phthisis, ai?d r.ipidly lost weight.

-When, however, oh the advice of my doctor, I availed myself of Angler's ICmnJsioii my

health began to mend, and I.qiiickly piit onfl esh. The Kmulsion is Ruitab!c to the

most delicate stomac.h ; my digestion was never hindered nor my appetite lessened by

its action. - Its influence upon the pulmonary organs is most beneficial, while it certiunly

fortifies the system in a marked degree. No- medicine I have hitherto taken has hern

fio cfitcacious. Unlike other eirtulsions, it do-'s not offend the palate, itsflavotir is

delicate, and! was able to take it with relish. (Sd.) , J; S. SB.EXU.DA.' , Journalist.

Plea sant t o Tako; Aids Digestiona

Ang,ier':i-Emulsion is soothing and healing tothe entire mucous ti'act,thi'oat, liings, .sto mach.and intestUie s. •• It not only heals and

streiigthQns weak iungs, biit'jt promot es ap.pelite, aids digestion, and

has a wonderfully invigorating tonic inlitience upon the general

health. Angler's Emuls ion is invaluable for coughs and lung affections,digestive and bowel disorders, "ru n down" conditions, and all wasting

diseases. Pleas ant to, take andacceptable to the mo.st delicaw

stomach, it can betaken' with equal advantage inBummer or winter.

WITH THU BIRDS.

Shy but Faithful Habitants

tlie-Garden^

of

Admirers 'of ilr. Henry, Hark nd's books andthose who had the honour of knowing hfra will remember the joy he had in the birds pt the air, howhe used to sit and cail his little friends around him,how he would talk to them and feed them, andhow, in his works he described ,with consumm atebeauty their. "sp eet :h" niid songs and their in

finitely lovable ways.Anyone tan make real friends of the birds of the

ftir, shy though they be, but they must go the rightway about opening up an acquaintance. Somebirds are wonderfully faithful, and will return

• again and again to the homewhere they have been kindlytreated, and will remember

' the voices of those who havecared for them or giventhem food and drink.

• In the spring and summerthe .quickest way Xd enticethe feathered creatures is toput fresh water in saucers forthem to drink and "in shallowbowls for them to bathe in,and, furthermore, to scattercrumbs on the ground fortheir delectation.

Let the receptacles be inconspicuous in colour andrough 'at the edges so thatthe birds may easily get afoothold. There are speciallymade and very picturesquebasins mounted on pedestalsto be bought; and with thesewomen love to decorate theirgardens, bu t ordinary pie(:esof crockery serve the purposejvell enough.

It is best to set downsaucers and other receptacles-jii a shady and, if-possible,retired spot, as the birds are. hy at first and not likely toVentnre into the open; andmost important is it that thespot chosen should not benear a shrubbery or near anyobject behind wdiich a catmight hide.

In the country all sorts ofbirds will gather together atour bidding at a" certain hourevery day, sparrows, gold-finchcs, woodpeckers, robins,jays, thrushes and many another sweet warbler, Tn London, too, we may bring ahappy flock about us,

Of all the birds, the robinsand wrens will beconie ourmost familiar friends; willhop at ease on the table;iviii visit us regularly throughthe winter months, andj ifthey ieave us in the spnng,will bring their young onesto^ make our acquaintancewhen, they ieave their nests ;but the saucy torhtits anasparrows are those that will

afford us most amusement inreturn for the hospitality weshow them.

As to the food that thebinU like best, why, crumbsof-bread and those seeds that.are usuaily sold for birds inconfmement, hemp, canary-seed and the like, besidesshreds of cooked potato andfat and bits of raw apple,

raisins and other fruits will make a feast for thelittle 'things. . • • • • L-

We may get ,m.uch insight.i nto the special charae,,teristics of the birds by watching them when theyare at their ease, and they will hftver ..about ourdoors, peck at the panels for admittance, and evenfeed out of cur hands in time.

Wrens only, need the encouragement afforded bythe right sort, of. nesting "boxes to take up_ theirabode at our very doors. Put a little wool into acigar_ box Û K I , a t t a c h this securely to a post orporch, or what yqii will, sp long,as' the.spot is nottoo pubhc a one.' A ..hole .should-be made largeenough for-.-,:thc. bird s-t o get in a'ncfout"'of "theirhabitation. ', •

I-t is better, ofcourse, tq buy the regular nesting'TxAes rrfadtf'forthe purpose, which may easily beob,tain.ed.,",Th?.,t>oses.,;iây be placed but in May,but wrens will raise two .broods, so, that they w illoften take'up their abode' in bird-houses that areonly put out late in June.-

Martins and sparrows arc more bashful, but ifthe same nesting boxes as tor wrens are put out torthem at some distance from the house they, too,win occupy them in time. '

Certain flowers, such as lobelias, ^foxgloves,

phloxes,' salvias, pet unias, and, above all, honeysuckle, attract, the t)irds. Peanu ts, knotted on awell-secured string, will bring out some of the moredaring birds, arid it is,good fun to watch the littlecreatures tilting themselves' on the'string and swing-

Lecture on Cheese and Cheese Making.

A highly interesting lecture on " Cheese and (.'heesemolt-iiig " was delivered by Mr. A, Brewer, member of the Institute of Hygiene, at, the Battersea Polytechnie.

The lecturer, at the outset, showed the great importance ofthe quality of the pasture or,feed of the eow providing themilk which formed the raw material for ,the manufacture q!cheese. " "' •"•

He divided the science of cheesemaking into four parts ;(1) The care of the miik previous to manufacture; (2) theactual manufacture of hard and soft cheese; (3) the care ofthe complete product, until it reached the consumer; and (4)the advantages of cheese as a substitute for flesh food.

Mr. Brewer described in detail the various processes in themakinj[ of clieese and the methods of testing the condition ofthe finished prodiict. He enunierated some of the 15(i kindsof cheese made in various' countries, dividing them into"hard" and."soft." As an example,of ,the, former he tiKikCanadian Cheddar, and of the latter St, Ivel Lactic Clieese,Having referred to -Profes.sor Metchuik ofl's researc hes into theaction'of the BaciUu's'BulKarieus, he went on to claim for St.Tvel Cheese great dietetic value ort account of its purity andthe fact that it contains an abundance of the organic pho.s-

phates':' " '" ' 'The makers of St. Ivel Lactic Cheese had, he said, achieved

a great success, for they had produced'a cheese which, owingto the rapid actiorf of the special culture used, converted thecurd into a cheese ready for, the consumer, and with all theOrganic phosphates retained.' He, personally, strongly advocated the use of this cheese as being pure, digestible, and ofhigh dietetic value. He hoped that the community would soonaw-aken to the great advantages of cheese generally as a substitute for flesh foods, and of this cheese in particular, whichhad a health value peculiar to itself.

In dealing with the dietetio value of cheese, the lecturerquoted a number of authorities to prove his case, amongstwhom were the late Sir Hen^y Thompson, Dr. Hutchison,author• of •" Food and Dietetics," Dr. Haig, Dr. Bond, Mat-tieu Williams, and Mr. Eustace Miles,.M.A.

The amusing and often lengthy process of bargaining between farmer and buyer was fully described, and this andsimilar digressions formed a relief to the mass of technicaldetail with which the lecture abounded, and which gave it aspecial educative value.

Mr,.Brewer was listened to with great attention throughout,and at the conclusion of his lecture was heartily thanke{i forhis "interestinjf and scientific exposition " of his subject,

T h e above is a convincing proof of

t h e value of St. Ivel Lactic Cheese

a s an article of food.

Apart from its heal th - giving p r o

perties it is delicious to eat, and it

i s not only easily digested, but is

considered by medical men to be a

great aid to digestion.

Mary foimd a small house hi a small s tree t t l ia t

seemed miraculously to have been lef t out of thetremendous and far-Teaching devasta tion tha t hadduring the i jas t few years transformed the oid-fashioned' dis tr ic t of Blnomsbury, f irs t into a seriesof biick f ie lds , and then into a number of wideavenues , lonla ininc noth.ing, and se t about withhoard ings . The house was spotless ly c lean-lookingand very well kept as to c iir ta ins and brasses , Ayounjîsh woman answered the door lo Mary . Shehad a pleasant face , with a pa ir of la rge roundbrown eyes , so interes ted in everything tha t t i ieylooked as if they might easily pop out of her head.The y surveyeci Maty with a certa in amou nt of wonder , a l thou gh the woman's face wore the habitu a la ir of nonchalance of the born Iôndoner.-

MaryNwas very s imply dressed, but there wass ome th ing a bout he r a ppe a r a nc e tha t ma r ke d he tout as one not be longing lo the world tha t inhabitedThur l e - s t r e e t .

" Yes, miini , I be lieve Mr. Tanner has jus t comein. Were you wanti ng.to see him? "

" Y e s , p l e a s e . ""W ha t name shall I say? Will you come this

way , please? " .Mary s toppe{l her . She did fiot want to intrude

oil; Tan ner w ithout warnin g him h natura l de li-,€aCy prevented her . In spite of the curious intimacy of the ir re la tions , she knew nothing whatever about his [irivate life.

" Will you please go and ask Mr, Tan ner if he

can spare Miss Shawâ few min utes? " she sa id.Th e woman went off upsta irs . A few moment sla ter Tanner himself came running down the s ta irs ,

" G ood mor n ing ! ' he said..T he fam iiiar , pleas ant voice f i l led Mary with

a mos t c ur ious a nd ine xpl i c a b le f ee l ing . I t w a sa warm- fee ling, such as is caused by the bringingback of pleasant things , by fhe l iving again ofpleasa nt days , by the conjured up vis ion of pl easant scenes .

' • I hope s o , " he a ns w e r e d s e r ious ly ." Wha t do yo.u .mean? "" Oh, I mean it ' s such a te rr ible thing to th ink

of a nybody be ing t e mpte d to de s t r oy the ms e lve s . "• Mary gave a l i t t le sound of pa in.

" You 're more charitable than I , I neverthought o f i t f o r a mom e nt , "

" Perh aps the re 's no reason to think of i t ," hes a id . " I d idn ' t me a n to d i s t r e ss you , "

With every word he spoke he seemed to i \Ia ryto s tand out more comple te l y, more favou rablyfrom her world. She seemed to herse lf to be rega r d ing h im d is pa s s iona tely . For t he mome ntshe was conscious tha t her de termination wasright, and a deep sa tisfac tion f i l led her soul.

" I have come to say someth ing e lse , ' ' she sa id,in a low voice . " I have come to ask you sdm e-thing, ;Will you marry, me? "

She looked. 'him s tra ight in the face , having pronounced the words tha t c lothed the de terminationthat she had arr ived a t she hardly knew how. Inthe f irs t moment he f lushed crimson and s tar tedback as if he had rece ived a blow, but he los t noneof his assurance and quie t se lf-possess ion. Marywas e ternally gra teful to him afterwards tha t hedid not ask her if she rea lly meant what she sa id.

" .W hy do . you a s k me th a t ? " he s a id . -" B e c a use , " , s he - a ns w e r e d s imply , " I w a nt j ' ou

as she clothed .her thou ghts in th e most f i t t ingspeech she could f ind-- " because I be lieve tha t} 'ou could he lp me very mu ch; because i t isthroug h .you tha t I have come to see my duty ;because yoii a re s tra ight" and upright and honourable , a nd you and I have muc h in c omm on;becaiisq——" she hesita ted a mom ent— " because Ibeheve I should be .happy witi i you, and you couldhelp me to discharge my responsibil i t ies and l ivefor the 'good of the people who work for me,"

foregoing you are in the grip of Catarrh,a dsease which not only saps your vitality,

kills ambition and energy, but only toofrequently tai-minites latally m Catarih of

the Stomach and drea led Conbumption.Moreover, the constant

swallowing of the fetidmucus during sleep slowly

but surely poisons the

stomach, liver, kidneys, andother organs. You need not,

however, suffer anothe rhour if you will only can>

out the simple home trcat-mentwhich cured mc 7 ycai ->

ago, and has* smcc then,

cured hundreds ot otheis.With my treatment,

known as the " SMi leySystem," relief is appai cnt

from the veryfirst a )plica-tion. The nose becomes

clearer, the mucusno longerdrops into the back of the

throat, the frontal headaches disappear as. if by

ma ic, and that "tir ed

feeling " on rising in the morning completelypasses away. Ys u will again feel that life

•is indeed worth living. My system is unlikeany other. It is direct and thorough. It

clears out the head, nose, thi/oat and lungsso that you can a^cin breathe freely and

"stopped-up" feeling with which all Catarrh

sufferers are only too pairifully familiar.Moreover, it heals the diseased mucous

membranes, airests the discharce, and attiie same time does not poison the system

or ruin the stomach as internal medicines do. No ;

matter how many , treatments have been used, do

not consider your case hope

less until you have tried thiswonderful home ' System.'

My treatment has provedso remarkably successful,

even in the worst forms of

chronic Catarrh, that Iwill gladly send it on 14days' trial.on the distinct

understanding that if thepatient derives no benefit

no expense ot any kind

will be incurred. Writeto-day (a postcard will

do) and mention the nameof this paper, to Elmer

of some of the hundreds of men and

women who have cured themselves bythis efficacious and inexpensive Home

Treatment.
